Robert Watson 52cd27cb58 Implement a CPU-affine TCP and UDP connection lookup data structure,
struct inpcbgroup.  pcbgroups, or "connection groups", supplement the
existing inpcbinfo connection hash table, which when pcbgroups are
enabled, might now be thought of more usefully as a per-protocol
4-tuple reservation table.

Connections are assigned to connection groups base on a hash of their
4-tuple; wildcard sockets require special handling, and are members
of all connection groups.  During a connection lookup, a
per-connection group lock is employed rather than the global pcbinfo
lock.  By aligning connection groups with input path processing,
connection groups take on an effective CPU affinity, especially when
aligned with RSS work placement (see a forthcoming commit for
details).  This eliminates cache line migration associated with
global, protocol-layer data structures in steady state TCP and UDP
processing (with the exception of protocol-layer statistics; further
commit to follow).

Elements of this approach were inspired by Willman, Rixner, and Cox's
2006 USENIX paper, "An Evaluation of Network Stack Parallelization
Strategies in Modern Operating Systems".  However, there are also
significant differences: we maintain the inpcb lock, rather than using
the connection group lock for per-connection state.

Likewise, the focus of this implementation is alignment with NIC
packet distribution strategies such as RSS, rather than pure software
strategies.  Despite that focus, software distribution is supported
through the parallel netisr implementation, and works well in
configurations where the number of hardware threads is greater than
the number of NIC input queues, such as in the RMI XLR threaded MIPS
architecture.

Another important difference is the continued maintenance of existing
hash tables as "reservation tables" -- these are useful both to
distinguish the resource allocation aspect of protocol name management
and the more common-case lookup aspect.  In configurations where
connection tables are aligned with hardware hashes, it is desirable to
use the traditional lookup tables for loopback or encapsulated traffic
rather than take the expense of hardware hashes that are hard to
implement efficiently in software (such as RSS Toeplitz).

Connection group support is enabled by compiling "options PCBGROUP"
into your kernel configuration; for the time being, this is an
experimental feature, and hence is not enabled by default.

Subject to the limited MFCability of change dependencies in inpcb,
and its change to the inpcbinfo init function signature, this change
in principle could be merged to FreeBSD 8.x.

* pcbgroups, or "connection groups" are based on Willman, Rixner, and Cox's
* 2006 USENIX paper, "An Evaluation of Network Stack Parallelization
* Strategies in Modern Operating Systems". This implementation differs
* significantly from that described in the paper, in that it attempts to
* introduce not just notions of affinity for connections and distribute work
* so as to reduce lock contention, but also align those notions with
* hardware work distribution strategies such as RSS. In this construction,
* connection groups supplement, rather than replace, existing reservation
* tables for protocol 4-tuples, offering CPU-affine lookup tables with
* minimal cache line migration and lock contention during steady state
* operation.
*
* Internet protocols, such as UDP and TCP, register to use connection groups
* by providing an ipi_hashfields value other than IPI_HASHFIELDS_NONE; this
* indicates to the connection group code whether a 2-tuple or 4-tuple is
* used as an argument to hashes that assign a connection to a particular
* group. This must be aligned with any hardware offloaded distribution
* model, such as RSS or similar approaches taken in embedded network boards.
* Wildcard sockets require special handling, as in Willman 2006, and are
* shared between connection groups -- while being protected by group-local
* locks. This means that connection establishment and teardown can be
* signficantly more expensive than without connection groups, but that
* steady-state processing can be significantly faster.
*
* Most of the implementation of connection groups is in this file; however,
* connection group lookup is implemented in in_pcb.c alongside reservation
* table lookups -- see in_pcblookup_group().
*
* TODO:
*
* Implement dynamic rebalancing of buckets with connection groups; when
* load is unevenly distributed, search for more optimal balancing on
* demand. This might require scaling up the number of connection groups
* by <<1.
*
* Provide an IP 2-tuple or 4-tuple netisr m2cpu handler based on connection
* groups for ip_input and ip6_input, allowing non-offloaded work
* distribution.
*
* Expose effective CPU affinity of connections to userspace using socket
* options.
*
* Investigate per-connection affinity overrides based on socket options; an
* option could be set, certainly resulting in work being distributed
* differently in software, and possibly propagated to supporting hardware
* with TCAMs or hardware hash tables. This might require connections to
* exist in more than one connection group at a time.
*
* Hook netisr thread reconfiguration events, and propagate those to RSS so
* that rebalancing can occur when the thread pool grows or shrinks.
*
* Expose per-pcbgroup statistics to userspace monitoring tools such as
* netstat, in order to allow better debugging and profiling.
